Re: Post your daily exercise routine
Well, I caught up on all the posts I missed when I was unwell, and glad to see you all at it.
Wow, Floydy, you've joined the ranks of the runners I see! Well done on that, and well done as always to everyone who does any form of exercise. The joints are still in good shape thanks to the low dose of chemo, and I got my heart checked over on Christmas Eve(!) with an ultrasound scan at the hospital and my heart is apparently in great shape. As mentioned in my previous post, I was given the all clear on the 30th to resume LIGHT training. Sooooo...
With permission given, I made it to the gym today and did maybe 30 to 40 mins of light exercise to see how it went. I managed a feeble score of 57/100 on the machines according to my data key but for a trial run to see if I could breathe ok it was to be expected. I normally score over 90/100 but my low score didn't get me down because I can build up from there again over the next few months. It was nice to be back there, to be honest.

Re: Post your daily exercise routine
I did better at the gym today, and upped the routine a bit, although I am still way below my previous capabilities. I did an hour which included work on the machines that record how much you lift and some arm, chest, bicep and tricep work on free weights which is obviously not able to be recorded. I scored 77/100 for the session and burnt 450 calories while shifting a total of 27,745 kilos. It sounds better than it is because leg work really contributes a lot to the totals. Still, even using buses it involves a 3 mile walk there and back, so that helps my recovery as well.Still, it's better than the previous session. My breathing was fine and I feel great as I sit and type. I'll give it a rest until Tuesday before I go back though. Carefully does it, as they say! Hopefully in a few weeks I'll be doing some proper workouts.

Good work Tachyon and Happy New Year.....
After running fifteen times (5 miles) around the deck of the Arcadia on New Years Eve, my big toe joint swelled to painful proportions and it has prevented me from starting my 2020 running season. After a limp down to the surgery this morning the charming Dr Roberts examined my painful extremity and announced that it is Gout that was the culprit.....Wow!
